- Hello folks, We have followed your conversations very closely about the state of the game of late, and we agree it’s not in the place we all would like it to be. Recent releases, including our most re…
- The Dead by Daylight team announces several roadmap updates and previews a lineup of gameplay changes, quality of life updates, and general game health improvements to come. Dead by Daylight will be u…
- Every 2nd game against Clowns who abuse the haste + Rapid Brutality/STBFL/Blood Favor. There is not a single fun aspect for survivors or any amount of "decision making" for the Clown player. Games end…
- 8/5/2024: You know this date. FNAF was announced to be coming to DBD in the summer of 2025 which, if I’m being honest, weird choice to announce your biggest Collab a year before it comes out, but I di…
- I'm a big fan of DBD - played since it's inception. But these last few releases have been appalling. What has happened to the quality control…. I'm serious in my question - all it would take is for on…
- A killer who was mutated by radiation and grows deformities on their body would be a interesting avenue for more body horror in DBD. I imagine the killer looking like the one zombie type in Dead Islan…
- Just tried the nerfed fog vials and you can literally see through them to the other side lmao. I was having so much fun using a new item since our last new item was 9 years ago! They really helped wit…
- Unpopular take but I liked it more than 2v8 and a lot more than Chaos Shuffle. I know survivor mains pretty much hated it but I think should be added back to the rotation. At least bring it back one m…
- Dead by Daylight hex perks comprehensive analysis The numbers don't lie: hex perks have become a liability in Dead by Daylight's current meta, with statistical evidence showing why the community has l…
- I dunno where to report this, so I'll throw it here and hope a mod moves it there it should be... However the edit option is broken (at least on Android). Whenever you try, the text box vanishes (alon…
- I could’ve sworn they did a change that caused him to lose 2 tokens after breaking a pallet but every kaneki i face uses brutal strength to zone and then only have a 2 second cooldown on their power. …
- There are certainly a few silly scenarios with the perk, but I don't know if they will nerf it. Conviction builds are pretty fun, though, when you're the one using them. Playing against them is anothe…
- No counterplay at all But skull merchant deserved nerf after nerf when she wasn't half as poweful as him. Please, explain to me how it works to balance a killer
- Ok let me explain before you all get mad. I've been playing this game for years and the ghoul still simply doesn't fit into the game. I have played hit and against and for dbd having the tag horor the…
- Her slow down bug and her dog just “poofing” away has been in the game since Ghoul came out. We have had 7 patches of bug fixes since then she still remains broken. It’s August now. This all started i…
- dbd plague accessibility rework The non corrupted "vomit" is now turned into black smoke/smok Corrupted purge is now changed to have the black smoke + firey embers. When applied to objects the object …
- Plague has always been a neat killer to play and her menu music is pretty cool. Just wondering when she will get her own unique theme.
- His power merges too much with forcing survivors to be put into mending state and it counters DH OTR and BT. This is uncounterable because usually kaneki mains tunnel so much and there’s nothing you c…
- I noticed I got this message. I remember what match it is from when unfortunately I was too long in toilet and the match had started when I came back and I was pretty much camped to death in first hoo…
- I played my first and possibly last game of the day just now. Why might it be the last? I knew I'd get a 2k at best, but instead I had zero kills because, despite the survivor going down on my end dur…Started by MalortMaven
- They always get the shine let Shane get some too at least as a skin a sticker something, this would be perfect against the nemesis so I can leave a survivor behind like Shane did
- On the Devs live stream confirmed 2v8 Survivor classes are getting changes and buffs which I kinda thought Survivor classes were already pretty strong. but I geuss in order to make Survivor more appea…
- Just had a game where I had everyone hooked!!!! I went afk and someone nearby actually kobe'd because the game read me as camping. EVERYONE WAS DEAD OR HOOKED ALREADY??? there was no luck offerings or…
- Give an upvote and a comment if you agree! Would be a cool Easter egg/callback
- Items have 25% more charges Teammates within 8 meters from you are also affected by this perk, and it lingers for 15 seconds when not in range anymore It would be awesome to have this perk right now
- Took 40 matches and finally resorting to offerings. My god…. No one was even slightly exageratting how trash this map is. Why in the world even bother with it? You could've done a HEY we are going to …
- Anyone else getting at least one survivor dc every match playing as killer? I’m a pinhead main and played yesterday and today, not a single match without a dc. I know pinhead is hell for soloq but sin…
- i find it pretty weak that i can still be downed when i hit killer with a pallet and stunned him how is that fair. Did they forget that its called a pallet stun what happened to the stunning fix this …
- The first ever video game i ever played was the first God of War, and the series is the reason why I love Greek Mythology to this day. If a chapter inspired by greek mythology were to be added to DBD …
- and this is with the iri addon post nerf. ”i think we did a pretty good job so far” it also looked way clearer in game rather than this screen shot and i dont have any filters or anything on either.
- On the face of it, I am all for a target of 60% kill rate for killers. Make the game slightly killer sided so that it's clear killer is the power role. My problem with it is how it's currently being a…
- Over the past two days, I've had, no exaggeration, four matches against blatant cheaters. This has been a problem for years, and yet the developers don't seem to care whatsoever. When are you going to…
Does anyone here have an rtx 5070 and willing to test some stuff out with me in DBD Frame gen in DBD
Just want someone to test out fluid motion nvidia frame gen setting for DBD (yes i know fake frames bla bla bla) no need to tell me about fake frames etc. Either way im just looking into seeing how mu…- I'm one of those persistent gripers about bugs but after seeing this video, I now understand how complex the situation is and how the devs could have never known how big this game would come to be. So…Started by Garboface
- There's no way the devs actually think these will be used right? A perk should be an actual perk, meaning it shouldn't come with downsides. The time wasted trying to activate some of these perks would…
- So first of, if I remember correctly, the matchmaking is specific for each killer right? I'm trying to do my achievements and currently doing Nemesis, I have not played him at all, like maybe 3 matche…
- The map object isn't working properly. You can't see pallet or windows auras. You can only see totems or other survs with addons. It's completely useless.Started by Arshield
- I am aware a lot of people like 2v8 I'm one of the ones who hasn't liked it since it's first showing & can't enjoy it still now. I am also one of the people who knows realistically it's not what peopl…
- Recently the devs confirmed there were no plans to implement a system to copy and paste perk loadouts. Would it instead be useful to be able to flag loadout elements as favorites? I think it would be …Started by Dark_Vorahk1
- As generic as it may be, a spider would be so incredibly epic if done well. But I believe something like that is not going to happen since killers are mostly humanoid. Imagine its legs going through d…
- I watched the video from MintSkull. It seriously made me think. In short, who don’t want to look at his video: the game in its current state will never be free from technical issues, we will continue …
- The Hatch should auto-close after X minutes to keep the game moving along. I've noticed that The Killer often camps the Hatch and drags out the Trial. The devs have long stated they are in favor of br…
- Is probably because they're not being reported. There should be an option in-game to report players that you witness cheating, like a chucky spawning in, immediately finding you and sliding around the…
- Serious question. Is the community cool with power creep if it means in the future on going projects of DbD it means we get cooler mechanics and abilities for BOTH sides? This obviously would be a slo…
- the game was in an obviously unstable state with numerous issues that both existed during the public test and would have been impossible to miss during internal deployment and QA nobody expects the ga…
- I'm just looking for an opinion. I've noticed that my killer games have gotten tougher due to having to spend more time at the start looking for survivors. Spawns are random so I don't know where they…
- This serves no purpose. This is only hatred. I'm hoping it amuses someone. But as far as critique of this game goes, it's not even critique. It's simply, hatred. I think I finally snapped today. I loo…
- Title. I'm sick and tired of the same killers on repeat. When do we actually get proper reworks/buffs for weak M1 or M2 killers? I can't stand seeing a The Ghoul or The Blight any longer. I miss the t…
- The title! :D
- With the addition of the gamma settings, I can only assume majority of players have it on the brightest setting (I do too). I was thinking about playing some Dredge until I recently played against one…
